    This was my first time at Molly Tea! I've heard and seen about it everywhere; but I've never made the effort to try since I don't typically drink similar stuff. However, it was a hot day and I just really wanted something refreshing! I believe this location is recently opened? It was busy but no line when I went. A lot of drinks were sold out. We ordered the Jasmine tea and the champaca matcha. It was soooo yummy. They had a special deal going around (ended on 5/31), where I was able to get a Santa Clara exclusive pin and a satchet! The jasmine scent is sooooo good! I love it sooo much! I would definitely go out my way to just buy the jasmine scented satchet. Anyways, I really enjoyed my experience at this location and the drinks were delicious! I understand all the hype, and will come back whenever I feel like going out for a bev!!

    SOFT OPENING REVIEW! Finally a Molly Tea location with good parking AND it's a little more spacious than other stores! Staff here were quick and we got our drinks within 10 minutes of ordering. My drink recommendations: Premium Jasmine Milk Tea, White Champaca Milk Tea, and the Premium Matcha Jasmine. Personally 70% sugar is my usual sweetness here! But even 30% is a good sweetness for most people.

    They're still in their soft opening phase at the moment but glad that they're opening up more locations across the Bay Area! This location is somewhat small on the inside but there's plenty of places to sit and sip outside and around the tea shop. It's located in a somewhat busy plaza but there's ample parking if you're willing to walk. The shop is located just outside the library. I came 2x during the grand opening bc BOGO is too good of a deal to miss out on! My go two are the Snowy Jasmine & Premium Jasmine milk tea. It's best with their recommended sweetness and less ice. Somehow. When I get 100% sweetness it tastes worse.

    WOW! I attended the soft opening of Molly Tea and it was buzzing with people and energy! There was a line out the door, but the staff kept things moving. Someone greets you inside and takes your order. There are so many teas and options to choose from! I went with the Snowy Jasmine (ICED) and it was SO GOOD. The jasmine flavor was strong and refreshing. The whipped cream with the pecans was out of this world. Such great flavors and a fun experience overall. They also have cute pink reuseable bags! Yelp Elite tip: This weekend (5/22-5/23) is Buy One Get One Free!

    So happy they made another location, and one with much better parking! There's only a few small tables inside, more of a grab and go place than hanging out for long. Love being able to go to Molly tea on my lunch and not seeing a super long line. Ordered on a kiosk and got my drink within minutes!

    cool pin for first 200 people

    Went today for their grand opening on 05/22/26! I got into line around 10am and by the time they opened at 11am....I was in my car with my BOGO by 12pm. So all in all, waited 2 hours for their BOGO and awesome cool Santa Clara pin. You also get to draw out a raffle which was nice! You could win tablets etc but I got 50% off a second drink coupon lol . The drinks are good! Definitely not my first time having Molly Tea but I wanted to check out this particular location since it is closer to my home. And much much more parking than Sunnyvale or Cupertino location!!! Yay!!! So you get to order any drink and get a free drink only from the Floral Fresh Milk Menu side. I got the Pistachio White Champaca Coconut at 70% sweet and less ice and it was PERFECT! loved the refreshing taste!!! And the free drink was my husband's White Champaca Oolong Milk Tea also less ice and 70% sweet. His drink was very mild and not that sweet. Was also really milky to me ..which I don't prefer. But he liked his drink. I would go back again and try their other drinks! Staff was efficient and nice!

    I came here during their BOGO and I appreciate how well they handled the massive line! The workers were prepared, professional, and helpful. The line moved quick and we received our orders fairly quickly as well. There is limited seating in the store and some tables outside. I will always enjoy the jasmine MT from molly tea! The quality and service is outstanding!

    I'm genuinely obsessed with this place. I used to think there was no way a tea shop could live up to the hype, but after trying the Matcha Jasmine cheese foam, I can't stop thinking about it. Everything I've had here has been so good. Even the straws somehow make the experience better l they slow me down because I tend to drink way too fast. Definitely one of my favorite tea spots now.

    Came on the grand opening weekend. This location has much better parking than others in the South Bay. Staff were super friendly and helpful, and the service was pretty quick considering how busy it was! Recommended Drinks: Premium Jasmine Milk Tea (pictured) Pistachio White Champaca Coco

    I was so excited that Molly Tea just opened another location in Santa Clara recently!! Every time I'm at Molly Tea, I always have to get their Premium Jasmine Matcha, which tastes so good and always hit the spot. I also tried their Snowy Jasmine and it has a delicious, strong jasmine taste while the Peach Tieguanyin Oolong Milk Tea has a good, strong peach taste that I really like as well. Service was quick and efficient

    This has got to be my favorite location in South Bay because parking is spacious, in comparison to the Sunnyvale/Cupertino locations. I got in line 15 mins after they opened at 11am, and it wasn't too bad. It took about 10 minutes to get to the kiosk, and another 10-15 minutes of waiting for my drinks. I ordered the Premium Jasmine Tea and the Snowy Jasmine, both are light and yummy if you enjoy the jasmine hint jn your teas. The line did get long shortly after since it was getting close to noon. The workers are attentive & the shop itself is so cute inside & out that I didn't want to leave! The menu seems limited right now so hopefully I can come back to order their new mango drink that the other locations offer.

    After I told a hg that I really enjoy floral tea, she highly recommended Molly Tea!…read more --- D R I N K S --- My favorite combo is the White Champaca Milk tea with a Jasmine Whipped Cream With Pecan top and sago! It sounds like a lot, but it actually works really well together. The White Champaca tea is on the mellow side, the Jasmine whipped cream adds additional floral aroma and extra creaminess, the sago gives texture without overpowering the drink, and the little bits of pecan add a nice surprise crunch. My husband's favorite is the Peach Oolong. I've had my fair share of peach milk teas over the years where they can be too sweet and the peach flavor tastes straight up like chemicals, but this has to be the best peach-flavored tea I've had so far! It has a fruity taste that doesn't overpower the flavor of the tea leaves. When I first visited last year, they had a "Fresh Oat Milk Tea Series", but I'm sad to say that it's not on this location's menu anymore. _______________________________________________________ ---A M B I A N C E -- I'm diggin' the woodsy, warm, Asian-y aesthetic they got going on! Tea and merch are displayed on the walls, and pink is definitely their signature color, so expect to see pops of it here and there in the decor, cups, and to-go bags. This location has a decent amount of chairs and tables, but let me tell you, this place was hella busy back when it was the only Bay Area location. We learned the hard way that the parking lot gets packed. Sometimes you'll get stuck in the super small lot because someone isn't even in a spot -- they just have their car parked with the hazards on while they run in to pick up their drink. Other times, cars are waiting and signaling for a parking spot while other cars are on standby waiting for people to leave after grabbing their drinks. The gas station behind the shop clearly got tired of it too because they put up a bunch of signs saying they'll tow if you park there just to visit Molly Tea. I highly recommend parking down the street near the apartment sidewalks or across the street and taking a little stroll to the store instead. Honestly, it just showed me that no matter how tiny the lot was, people still made the effort to slide through for drank. Fair warning though -- definitely expect to wait and chill. _______________________________________________________ --- S E R V I C E --- I will say, the staff handles the busyness pretty well. Lines are usually at or out the door, and they're receiving online orders simultaneously. There's another boba shop in the Bay that has a similar layout and process as Molly Tea, but that other chain feels like workers on an assembly line with deadpan faces. I feel like the brightness and warmth of Molly Tea is emphasized even more because of the friendly staff and their willingness to help with your order even after it's received.

    If you find yourself free on a weekday afternoon and craving Molly Tea, it is the best time to go…read more I stopped by at 12 PM and ordered at the kiosk inside. The interior is clean, beautiful, and smells like fragrant tea. I'm so used to waiting 30-50 minutes for drink at their other locations, like San Mateo. I had fully accepted my fate after placing the order, so I immediately walked back to my car to snack on In N Out fries. 5 minutes later, I got a text that my order was ready! There is a sign by the registers stating that drinks are best enjoyed within 15 minutes to prevent the foam from melting too much. I like how their employees ask if you want whipped cream on top of Snowy drinks when you arrive at the pick-up counter. I believe you can ask for the whipped cream in a paper cup instead and get a small package of pecans. They automatically do this for online takeout orders. The Snowy Jasmine is phenomenal! It's fragrant and floral, you can tell the tea is high quality and not watered down. I absolutely love the pecans topping, so unique and yummy. I used to think their super thin straw was just a gimmick, but the tea honestly tastes better through the small straw than a regular straw. 4 stars because the Tongmu Lapsang Bubble Tea is just OK, nothing special. Sunnyvale is one of the better locations and Molly Tea is a solid choice for bubble tea.

They got a lot of tea options plus Taiwanese snacks which I didn't try this time but looked pretty good. Downtown doesn't have that many boba spots so this place is kinda a lifesaver, esp when you just want something quick. Also they open super late (like 2am??), perfect if you're up late or just randomly craving boba at night. Place is small but chill, nothing fancy. Service was fine, got my drink pretty fast. I'd come back again for sure. Highly recommend if you in the area.

I came back and hyped my friends up on these pizza pockets they have. I mentioned if they still have it on the menu I'm going to order it. To my surprise, they did. I waited a normal amount of time for something like that -Maybe 10 minutes. It was quiet and not that busy/ evening time. While my friends and I waited, we scanned our surroundings and thought "yo. Why is there so many receipts and why are they brown like that." We checked and saw that there were receipts from march of 2025 on the front counter (currently November 2025). My friend asked them about it, so there's a chance they have since cleaned it, thrown it away. Think they might have more space on the counter if they address it.
